Social video editing

Video editing for Reels, TikTok and Shorts

Most social video is lost in the first three seconds. Good editing is mostly about pace and about earning the next second — cutting the dead air, landing the hook early, and making it readable with the sound off.

Cut for phones, not for desktop

Vertical framing for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, with the important part of the frame kept clear of the interface. A landscape video cropped to vertical as an afterthought always looks like one.

Subtitles on every video

Most people watch with the sound off, so every video is captioned. It's also the single cheapest thing you can do to keep people watching longer, which is what the algorithm actually rewards.

Turned around quickly

Social video is worth little if it arrives a fortnight late. Send the footage and you'll normally have the cut back within a few days.

What clients say

My videos have never looked better. The editing is clean, punchy and the turnaround is fast.
